It was a lusus naturae of a sale hit featuring Thomas Elliot , an example of what Batman could have been had he used his intellect and wealth for malevolence .

For the twentieth anniversary version of Hush , Jeph Loeb and Jim Lee reunited for a new coda to the serial that suggested that Hush had survived being fool and drowning .
Finding a place to hide in Gotham ’s river , an desert star - seamed boat …
… a place to heal himself , treat himself and regain .
Before jumping out of the fat and into the fire with The Joker and Harley Quinn , who he had also wronged .
Yesterday , I ran the news that all other comics news site seem embargoed from suggestingthat Jeph Loeb and Jim Lee will return to DC Comics ' chief ongoingBatmancomic Bible next year , followingChip Zdarsky ’s run on the series . ButI do n’t know if this will be a continuation and sequel toHush , as has been teased , orif it is something entirely new for 2025 .
Either way , alongside the likes ofAbsolute Batman , it should make a very happy 2025 for DC Comics .
